My Latest Miniature Approved at Epilogue!

I'm happy to post the final version of the miniature landscape that I had started painting and drawing when I last posted. Today I realized that it had been approved and can now be found in my gallery at the prestigious site
Epilogue -  Fantasy and Sci-Fi at Their Best

Getting a piece accepted and added to my own gallery at Epilogue was for a long time my first artistic goal. Through this second approval I realize that the first one wasn't just a lucky shot. This will mean a lot for my confidence as an artist.

Here is the piece, finally entitled "Wishful Wings:
